I was thinking that mod key was used for either CTRL or ALT + key signals.
Hey Tech!

Actually, I think you're wrong on this.

Just looking at the fr_FR.azerty.xkbd design, from that website I posted earlier, here's a part of the coding inside of it:

<key>
default Mod
default_ks !Mod
</key>
It looks like the Mod button has it's own special key.

If that's true, then you're looking at an extra level in keyboard design.

Anyway, I need that list of all the keys supported with Xkbd. Until then, my hands are tied.

It shouldn't be this hard looking for what commands it needs for certain keys. I'm just not finding it anywhere.

Right now, I need to know what to enter in for the values of these special keys:

Insert
Home
Page Up
Delete
End
Page Down
Cursor key up
Cursor key left
Cursor key down
Cursor key right
Print Screen (Not sure if that's even necessary)
Sys Rq (No clue what this button even is)
Scroll Lock
Pause
Break
Num Lock (I think this key is expendable, just curious if it's supported though)


There's also three other keys that I'm looking at, here at home, on my keyboard.

There's something between the Ctrl and Alt key (on the left side of the space key), it looks like there's some kind of Windows graphic on it.

It's also on the other side of the Alt key followed by this weird graphic with a cursor on it next to the Ctrl key, on the right side of the space key.

So yeah, those are all the keys I don't know how to enter in with the Xkbd format.

Any help on this from anyone and you'll see some good results with your response.

Thanks.
